Why we opened FaceBook to our teachers at Westlake High School
Teacher is the center of the universe vs everything is brought in to the classroom
Opening up collaboration.
Do we want to reinvent the wheel?
Meetings had ground rules
- teachers created a professional account
- use the school initials at the first of our names
- staff and student training
- helps with the "professional" aspect
- how do you handle inappropriate activity
Voluntary effort, FB was unlocked for the ones who attended training.
Focused on acceptable use policy, showed some wrong uses
They had to offer student training as well, to show them how to use the privacy setting, to avoid the "creepiness" factor, it became a one-sided conversation.
Opted for the privacy settings. Inappropriate stuff was handled as a training session. They feel like this provides a service to students about proper use, I.e., it wouldn't be appropriate for your employer to see this...
Needed technical support, the filter, administrator support.
Put in best practices and good conduct use procedures and ground rules.
Experimented with "groups" at first, teachers can create a group, and it eliminates the necessity to "friend"' can't see private data or pictures. Everyone can participate.
Groups took off.
